BACKGROUND

With the advance of science and technology, special-shaped screens andfull-screen screens have gradually come into people's vision in recentyears. The special-shaped screens and the full-screen screens areadopted to improve the screen-to-body ratio of the display device. Then,in order to achieve a higher screen-to-body ratio, some open regions(e.g., holes) need to be reserved for some additional components (e.g.,cameras, sensors, etc.) at some locations on the display screen.

With the development and update of display technologies, the organiclight emitting display (OLED) has become a mainstream product in thedisplay field due to its characteristics such as self-luminescence, highbrightness, high contrast, low operating voltage, and capability offorming flexible displays.

In order to make those skilled in the art better understand thetechnical solutions of the present disclosure, the present disclosure isfurther described in detail below with reference to the accompanyingdrawings and the detailed description.

Unless defined otherwise, technical or scientific terms used in thepresent disclosure shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by oneof ordinary skill in the art to which the present disclosure belongs.The terms “first,” “second,” and the like as used in the presentdisclosure are not intended to indicate any order, quantity, orimportance, but rather to distinguish one element from another. Also,the term “a,” “an,” or “the” and similar term do not denote a limitationof quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one. The term“include” or “comprise”, or the like, mean that the element or itempreceding the term includes the element or item listed after the termand its equivalent, but do not exclude other elements or items. The term“connected”, “coupled” or the like are not restricted to physical ormechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whetherdirect or indirect. The terms “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, or thelike are used only to indicate relative positional relationships, andwhen the absolute position of the object being described is changed, therelative positional relationships may also be changed accordingly.

With the development of display technology, the design of a screen witha notch at the top is gradually unable to satisfy the demand of the userfor the high screen-to-body ratio of the display panel, and a series ofdisplay panels that can realize display in the mounting region emerge atthe right moment. In this kind of display panels, the hardware such as aphotosensitive sensor (for example, a camera) can be set up in themounting region. Because there is no need to punch holes, a true fullscreen is possible under the premise of ensuring the practicability ofthe display panel.

An embodiment of the disclosure provides a display substrate, and adisplay panel applied with the display substrate does not reduce thenumber of pixels in a display region and ensures a better display effectof the display region on the premise of ensuring reliable driving oflight emitting devices D in the mounting region and better lighttransmittance of the mounting region.

FIG. 1 is a schematic distribution diagram of regions of a displaysubstrate. As shown in FIG. 1, the display substrate has a mountingregion Q3, a first display region Q1 surrounding the mounting region Q3,a transition region Q4 surrounding the first display region Q1, and asecond display region Q2 surrounding the transition region Q4. In anembodiment, the light emitting devices D are disposed in the mountingregion Q3, the transition region Q4, the first display region Q1, andthe second display region Q2 of the display substrate, and not only thelight emitting devices D but also pixel driving circuits 10 forsupplying driving signals to the light emitting devices D are disposedin the first display region Q1 and the second display region Q2. Sincethe mounting region Q3 needs to be provided with a photosensitive sensorwhile performing display, the light emitting devices D having a certaintransmittance are selected as the light emitting devices D in themounting region Q3. For example, the mounting region Q3 is not providedwith the pixel driving circuits 10, and the pixel driving circuits 10 ofthe light emitting devices D in the mounting region Q3 may be disposedin the first display region Q1 and/or the second display region Q2(hereinafter, the expression “the pixel driving circuit(s) of the lightemitting device(s)” means that the pixel driving circuit(s) for drivingthe light emitting device(s)). In order to facilitate electricalconnection between the light emitting devices D in the mounting regionQ3 and the pixel driving circuits 10 thereof, the pixel driving circuits10 of the light emitting devices D in the mounting region Q3 aredisposed in the first display region Q1 in some embodiments. In someembodiments, since the pixel driving circuits 10 of the light emittingdevices D in the mounting region Q3 are disposed in the first displayregion Q1, in order to facilitate the wiring of the signal lines (e.g.,data lines Vd) to which these pixel driving circuits 10 are coupled,only the light emitting devices D may be disposed in the transitionregion Q4 without the pixel driving circuits 10, and the pixel drivingcircuits 10 of the light emitting devices D in the transition region Q4may be disposed in the first display region Q1 and/or the second displayregion Q2. In order to facilitate electrical connection between thelight emitting devices D in the transition region Q4 and the pixeldriving circuits 10 thereof, the pixel driving circuits 10 of the lightemitting devices D in the transition region Q4 are also disposed in thefirst display region Q1 in some embodiments.

It should be noted that, in practice, the first display region Q1 is notlimited to be disposed around the mounting region, and if the mountingregion Q3 is at a corner, the first display region Q1 is adjacent toonly a part of the sides of the mounting region Q3. For example, thefirst display region Q1 surrounds two or three sides of the mountingregion Q3. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the explanationis given by taking a case where the first display region Q1 surroundsthe mounting region Q3, the transition region Q4 surrounds the firstdisplay region Q1, and the second display region Q2 surrounds thetransition region as an example. Of course, the mounting region may beadjacent to the first display region Q1, and the transition region Q4may be located between the first display region Q1 and the seconddisplay region Q2.

The second light emission control sub-circuit 6 iselectrically coupled to a second terminal of the driving sub-circuit anda first electrode D1 of the light emitting device D, respectively, andis configured to connect/disconnect the driving sub-circuit 3 to/fromthe light emitting device D.

It should be noted that, according to the characteristics of thetransistors, the transistors may be classified into N-type transistorsand P-type transistors. For the sake of clarity, the embodiments of thepresent disclosure use the transistors as P-type transistors (forexample, P-type MOS transistors) to illustrate the technical solutionsof the present disclosure in detail. That is, in the description of thepresent disclosure, the driving transistor T3, the data writingtransistor T4, the threshold compensation transistor T2, the first lightemission control transistor T5, the second light emission controltransistor T6, the first reset transistor T1, the second resettransistor T7, and the like may all be P-type transistors. However, thetransistors of the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limitedto P-type transistors, and one skilled in the art may also implement thefunctions of one or more transistors of the embodiments of the presentdisclosure by using N-type transistors (e.g., N-type MOS transistors) ora combination of P-type transistors and N-type transistors according toactual needs.

In addition, the transistors used in the embodiments of the presentdisclosure may be thin film transistors, field effect transistors orother switching devices having the same characteristics, and the thinfilm transistors may include oxide semiconductor thin film transistors,amorphous silicon thin film transistors, polysilicon thin filmtransistors, and the like. Each transistor includes a first electrode, asecond electrode and a control electrode. The control electrode servesas a gate electrode of the transistor, one of the first electrode andthe second electrode serves as a source electrode of the transistor, andthe other serves as a drain electrode of the transistor. The source anddrain electrodes of the transistor may be symmetrical in structure, sothat there may be no difference between the source electrode and thedrain electrode in physical structure. In an embodiments of the presentdisclosure, in order to distinguish transistors, except for the gateelectrode serving as the control electrode, the first electrode isdirectly described as the source electrode, and the second electrode isdirectly described as the drain electrode, so that the source and thedrain electrodes of all or some of the transistors in the embodiments ofthe present disclosure may be interchanged as necessary.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 2, the source electrode of the data writingtransistor T4 is electrically coupled to the source electrode of thedriving transistor T3, the drain electrode of the data writingtransistor T4 is configured to be electrically coupled to the data lineVd to receive the data signal, and the gate electrode of the datawriting transistor T4 is configured to be electrically coupled to afirst scan signal line Gal to receive the scan signal. A first plate CC1of the storage capacitor Cst is electrically coupled to the first powervoltage terminal VDD, and a second plate CC2 of the storage capacitorCst is electrically coupled to the gate electrode of the drivingtransistor T3. A source electrode of the threshold compensationtransistor T2 is electrically coupled to the drain electrode of thedriving transistor T3, a drain electrode of the threshold compensationtransistor T2 is electrically coupled to the gate electrode of thedriving transistor T3, and a gate electrode of the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 is configured to be electrically coupled to asecond scan signal line Ga2 to receive a compensation control signal. Asource electrode of the first reset transistor T1 is configured to beelectrically coupled to the first reset power terminal Vinit1 to receivea first reset signal, a drain electrode of the first reset transistor T1is electrically coupled to the gate electrode of the driving transistorT3, and a gate electrode of the first reset transistor T1 is configuredto be electrically coupled to a first reset control signal line Rst1 toreceive a first sub-reset control signal. A source electrode of thesecond reset transistor T7 is configured to be electrically coupled tothe first reset power terminal Vinit1 to receive the first reset signal,a drain electrode of the second reset transistor T7 is electricallycoupled to the first electrode D1 of the light emitting device D, and agate electrode of the second reset transistor T7 is configured to beelectrically coupled to the second reset control signal line Rst2 toreceive a second sub-reset control signal. A source electrode of thefirst light emission control transistor T5 is electrically coupled tothe first power voltage terminal VDD, a drain electrode of the firstlight emission control transistor T5 is electrically coupled to thesource electrode of the driving transistor T3, and a gate electrode ofthe first light emission control transistor T5 is configured to beelectrically coupled to a first light emission control signal line EM1to receive a first light emission control signal. A source electrode ofthe second light emission control transistor T6 is electrically coupledto the drain electrode of the driving transistor T3, a drain electrodeof the second light emission control transistor T6 is electricallycoupled to the first electrode D1 of the light emitting device D, and agate electrode of the second light emission control transistor T6 isconfigured to be electrically coupled to a second light emission controlsignal line EM2 to receive a second light emission control signal. Asecond electrode D3 of the light emitting device D is electricallycoupled to a second power voltage terminal VSS.

For example, one of the first power voltage terminal VDD and the secondpower voltage terminal VSS is a terminal providing a high voltage, andthe other is a terminal providing a low voltage. For example, in anembodiment as shown in FIG. 2, the first power voltage terminal VDD is avoltage source to output a constant first voltage, which is a positivevoltage; and the second power voltage terminal VSS may be a voltagesource to output a constant second voltage, which is a negative voltage.For example, in some examples, the second power voltage terminal VSS maybe grounded.

With continued reference to FIG. 2, the scan signal and the compensationcontrol signal may be the same, i.e., the gate electrode of the datawriting transistor T4 and the gate electrode of the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 may be electrically coupled to the samesignal line, e.g., the first scan signal line Gal, to receive the samesignal (e.g., the scan signal). In this case, the display substrate maynot be provided with the second scan signal line Ga2, thereby reducingthe number of signal lines. For another example, the gate electrode ofthe data writing transistor T4 and the gate electrode of the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 may be electrically coupled to differentsignal lines, i.e., the gate electrode of the data writing transistor T4is electrically coupled to the first scan signal line Gal, the gateelectrode of the threshold compensation transistor T2 is electricallycoupled to the second scan signal line Ga2, and the signals transmittedby the first scan signal line Gal and the second scan signal line Ga2are the same.

It should be noted that the scan signal and the compensation controlsignal may not be the same, so that the gate electrode of the datawriting transistor T4 and the gate electrode of the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 may be separately controlled, therebyincreasing the flexibility of controlling the pixel driving circuit 10.In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the explanation is given bytaking a case where the gate electrode of the data writing transistor T4and the gate electrode of the threshold compensation transistor T2 areelectrically coupled to the first scan signal line Gal as an example.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 2, the first and second light emissioncontrol signals may be the same, i.e., the gate electrode of the firstlight emission control transistor T5 and the gate electrode of thesecond light emission control transistor T6 may be electrically coupledto the same signal line (e.g., the first light emission control signalline EM1) to receive the same signal (e.g., the first light emissioncontrol signal). In this case, the display substrate may not be providedwith the second light emission control signal line EM2, thereby reducingthe number of signal lines. For another example, the gate electrode ofthe first light emission control transistor T5 and the gate electrode ofthe second light emission control transistor T6 may be electricallycoupled to different signal lines, respectively, that is, the gateelectrode of the first light emission control transistor T5 iselectrically coupled to the first light emission control signal lineEM1, the gate electrode of the second light emission control transistorT6 is electrically coupled to the second light emission control signalline EM2, and the signals transmitted by the first light emissioncontrol signal line EM1 and the second light emission control signalline EM2 are the same.

It should be noted that, in a case where the first light emissioncontrol transistor T5 and the second light emission control transistorT6 are different types of transistors (for example, the first lightemission control transistor T5 is a P-type transistor, and the secondlight emission control transistor T6 is an N-type transistor), the firstlight emission control signal and the second light emission controlsignal may also be different, and the embodiments of the disclosure arenot limited thereto. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, theexplanation is given by taking a case where the first light emissioncontrol line is coupled to the gate electrodes of the first lightemission control transistor T5 and the second light emission controltransistor T6 as an example.

For example, the first and second sub-reset control signals may be thesame, that is, the gate electrode of the first reset transistor T1 andthe gate electrode of the second reset transistor T7 may be electricallycoupled to the same signal line (for example, the first reset controlsignal line Rst1) to receive the same signal (for example, the firstsub-reset control signal). In this case, the display substrate may notbe provided with the second reset control signal line Rst2, therebyreducing the number of signal lines. For another example, the gateelectrode of the first reset transistor T1 and the gate electrode of thesecond reset transistor T7 may be electrically coupled to differentsignal lines, respectively, that is, the gate electrode of the firstreset transistor T1 is electrically coupled to the first reset controlsignal line Rst1, the gate electrode of the second reset transistor T7is electrically coupled to the second reset control signal line Rst2,and the signals transmitted by the first reset control signal line Rst1and the second reset control signal line Rst2 are the same. It should benoted that the first sub-reset control signal and the second sub-resetcontrol signal may be also different.

For example, in some examples, the second sub-reset control signal maybe the same as the scan signal, i.e., the gate electrode of the secondreset transistor T7 may be electrically coupled to the scan signal lineGa to receive the scan signal as the second sub-reset control signal.

In some embodiments, the first sub data line segment includes adifferent material from the second sub data line segment, and/or thefirst sub data line segment includes a different material from the thirdsub data line segment. In some embodiments, continuing to refer to FIGS.7-9, the first data line Vd-1 includes not only the first sub data linesegment Vd-11, the second sub data line segment Vd-12, and the third subdata line segment Vd-13, but also a first transfer electrode Vd-14 and asecond transfer electrode Vd-15.

In some embodiments, in the firstdisplay region Q1, the distance between nodes at which two pixel drivingcircuits 10 adjacent in the row direction X are respectively coupled tocorresponding data lines Vd is d1; in the second display region Q2, thedistance between nodes at which two pixel driving circuits 10 adjacentin the row direction X are respectively coupled to corresponding datalines Vd is d2; and d1 is less than d2. That is, the distance of twodata lines Vd adjacently disposed in the row direction X in the firstdisplay region Q1 is smaller than the distance of the two data lines Vdadjacently disposed in the row direction X in the second display regionQ2. The node at which the pixel driving circuit 10 is coupled to thedata line Vd is, for example, a via hole for connecting the data line tothe data writing transistor.

For example, in some embodiments, Mfirst sub-pixel driving circuit groups A10 are disposed in the firstsub-display region Q11 and the second sub-display region Q12. Among theM light emitting device groups A20 in the mounting region Q3, the 1^(st)to the M-th light emitting device groups A20 are arranged one by one ina direction from the first sub-display region Q11 towards the secondsub-display region Q12.

The signal connection line coupled to each of thepixel driving circuits 10 in the 2^(nd) to the (M−1)-th first sub-pixeldriving circuit groups A10 includes a transparent conductive material,for example, indium tin oxide.

In some embodiments, the signal connection line coupled to each of thepixel driving circuits 10 in the 2^(nd) to the (M−1)-th first sub-pixeldriving circuit groups A10 may be disposed in the same layer and made ofthe same material as the first electrode D1 of the light emitting deviceD. For example, the first electrode of the light emitting device D is ananode. The pixel driving circuits 10 in the 2^(nd) to the (M−1)-th firstsub-pixel driving circuit groups A10 may be coupled to the signalconnection lines through via holes penetrating through the insulatinglayer, and the signal connection lines are directly coupled to the lightemitting devices.

In some embodiments, the first sub-pixel driving circuit groups A10located in the first and second sub-display regions Q11 and Q12 areuniformly arranged in the row direction X. For example, the first pixeldriving circuit group includes, in addition to the first sub-pixeldriving circuit group A10, a second sub-pixel driving circuit grouppositioned in the first sub-display region Q11 and the secondsub-display region Q12, and the number of the second sub-pixel drivingcircuit groups between two adjacent first sub-pixel driving circuitgroups A10 is the same.

In some embodiments, the number of first sub-pixel driving circuitgroups A10 in the first display region Q1 is greater than the number oflight emitting device groups A20 in the mounting region Q3, that is,some redundant pixel driving circuits 10 are present in the firstdisplay region Q1, so that repair can be performed when some pixeldriving circuits 10 fail.

In some embodiments, in order to satisfy the wiring space of the datalines Vd coupled to the first sub-pixel driving circuit group, bycompressing the pixel driving circuits 10 in the third and fourthsub-display regions Q13 and Q14 in the column direction Y to form atransition region Q4 between the first and second display regions Q1 andQ2 and surrounding the first display region Q1, the wiring space isreserved by the transition region Q4 for the data lines Vd coupled tothe first sub-pixel driving line group A10. The data line Vd is a bendline in the transition region Q4, i.e., the portion of the bend line ofthe first data line Vd-1 in the transition region Q4 shown in FIG. 7.

In some embodiments, by compressing the pixel driving circuits 10 in thethird sub-display region Q13 and the fourth sub-display region Q14 inthe column direction Y, in the third sub-display region Q13 and thefourth sub-display region Q14, the distance between the reset powersignal lines to which two adjacent pixel driving circuits 10 are coupledin the column direction Y is d3; in the second display region Q2, thedistance between the reset power signal lines to which two adjacentpixel driving circuits 10 are coupled in the column direction Y is d4,and d3 is smaller than d4.

In some embodiments, in the first display region Q1, the width of atleast some pixel driving circuits 10 in the row direction X is smallerthan the width of at least some light emitting devices D in the rowdirection X. In an embodiment, the width of the pixel driving circuit 10in the row direction X is, for example, the distance between adjacentdata lines Vd, or the distance between respective positions of the samecomponents of two pixel driving circuits 10; the width of the lightemitting device D in the row direction X is, for example, the width ofthe first electrode D1 of the light emitting device D in the rowdirection X, the width of the light emitting layer of the light emittingdevice D in the row direction X, the width of the light emitting regionof the light emitting device D in the row direction X, or the width ofthe opening of the pixel defining layer of the light emitting device Din the row direction X, or the width of the light emitting device Dmeans one quarter of the distance between the light emitting devices ofthe same color in two light emitting units adjacently disposed in therow direction X.

For example, in a case where the width of the pixel driving circuits 10in the row direction X refers to the distance between respectivepositions of the same components of two pixel driving circuits 10, andthe width of the light emitting device D refers to one quarter of thedistance between the light emitting devices of the same color in twolight emitting units adjacently arranged in the X direction, in thefirst display region Q1, a difference between the width of any one pixeldriving circuit 10 in the row direction X and the width of any one ofthe light emitting devices D in the row direction X is about 3 to 5 μm.The height or width of the pixel driving circuit 10 is smaller than thewidth or height of the light emitting device D in the first displayregion Q1, and the height or width of the pixel driving circuit 10 isthe same as the width or height of the light emitting device D in thesecond display region Q2.

In some embodiments, since the photosensitive sensors are disposed inthe mounting region Q3, the size of the light emitting device D in themounting region Q3 is smaller than the size of the light emitting deviceD in each of the first display region Q1 and the second display regionQ2. For example, the size of the light emitting device D refers to thearea of the light emitting device D, such as the area of the anode, orthe area of the light emitting region. For example, the displaysubstrate further includes a pixel defining layer disposed on thesubstrate, the pixel defining layer includes pixel openings inone-to-one correspondence with the first electrodes D1 of the lightemitting devices D, and in each of the first display region Q1, thesecond display region Q2, and the mounting region Q3, the pixel openingscorresponding to the first electrodes D1 of the light emitting devices Demitting light with the same color have substantially the same size. Forthe pixel openings corresponding to the first electrodes D1 (forexample, anodes) of the light emitting devices D emitting light with thesame color, the size of the pixel opening in the mounting region Q3 issmaller than the size of the pixel opening in each of the first displayregion Q1 and the second display region Q2.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to make thestructures of the layers in the display substrate more apparent, thefollowing description will be given by explaining each patterned layerin the display substrate in detail with reference to the layout of thepatterned layer. For example, FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram of anactive semiconductor layer of a display substrate according to anembodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 14, the activesemiconductor layer 010 may be formed by patterning the semiconductormaterial. The active semiconductor layer 010 may be used to fabricateactive layers of the driving transistor T3, the data writing transistorT4, the threshold compensation transistor T2, the first light emissioncontrol transistor T5, the second light emission control transistor T6,the first reset transistor T1, and the second reset transistor T7described above. The active semiconductor layer 010 includes a patternof an active layer (channel region) and a pattern of a doped region(source/drain doped region) of each transistor of each sub-pixel, andthe pattern of the active layer and the pattern of the doped region ofeach transistor in the same pixel driving circuit 10 are formed as asingle piece.

It should be noted that, the active semiconductor layer 010 is disposedon the substrate, a buffer layer is formed between the substrate and theactive semiconductor layer 010, the active layer may include a lowtemperature polysilicon layer that is formed as a single piece, and thesource region and the drain region may be conducted by doping to realizeelectric connection of respective structures. That is, the activesemiconductor layer 010 of each transistor of each pixel driving circuit10 is a single pattern formed of p-Si, and each transistor in the samepixel driving circuit 10 includes the pattern of the doped region (i.e.,a source region and a drain region) and the pattern of the active layer,and active layers of different transistors are separated by the dopedstructure.

For example, the active semiconductor layer 010 may be made of amorphoussilicon, polycrystalline silicon, an oxide semiconductor material, orthe like. It should be noted that, the source region and the drainregion may be regions doped with n-type impurities or p-type impurities.

For example, the active semiconductor layers 010 of the pixel drivingcircuits 10 arranged in the row direction X are disconnected from eachother. The active semiconductor layers 010 of the pixel driving circuits10 arranged in the column direction Y may be formed as a single piece ormay be disconnected from each other.

For example, a gate insulating layer is formed on the activesemiconductor layer 010. FIG. 15 is a schematic diagram of a firstconductive layer of a display substrate according to an embodiment ofthe disclosure. As shown in FIG. 15, the display substrate includes afirst conductive layer 020, and the first conductive layer 020 isdisposed on a side of the gate insulating layer away from the activesemiconductor layer 010, so as to be insulated from the activesemiconductor layer 010. The first conductive layer 020 may include thesecond plate CC2 of the storage capacitor Cst, the scan signal line Ga,the reset control signal line Rst, the light emission control signalline EM, and the gate electrodes of the driving transistor T3, the datawriting transistor T4, the threshold compensation transistor T2, thefirst light emission control transistor T5, the second light emissioncontrol transistor T6, the first reset transistor T1, and the secondreset transistor T7.

For example, the gate electrode of the data writing transistor T4 may bea portion of the scan signal line Ga overlapping with the activesemiconductor layer 010; the gate electrode of the first light emissioncontrol transistor T5 may be a first portion of the light emissioncontrol signal line EM overlapping with the active semiconductor layer010, and the gate electrode of the second light emission controltransistor T6 may be a second portion of the light emission controlsignal line EM overlapping with the active semiconductor layer 010; thegate electrode of the first reset transistor T1 may be a first portionof the reset control signal line Rst overlapping with the activesemiconductor layer 010, and the gate electrode of the second resettransistor T7 may be a second portion of the reset control signal lineRst overlapping with the active semiconductor layer 010; the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 may be a thin film transistor having a dualgate structure, a first gate electrode of the threshold compensationtransistor T2 may be a portion of the scan signal line Ga overlappingwith the active semiconductor layer 010, and a second gate electrode ofthe threshold compensation transistor T2 may be a portion of aprotruding structure P, which protrudes from the scan signal line Ga,overlapping with the active semiconductor layer 010. The gate electrodeof the driving transistor T3 may serve as the second plate CC2 of thestorage capacitor Cst.

It should be noted that each dotted rectangular box in FIG. 14 showseach portion where the first conductive layer 020 overlaps with theactive semiconductor layer 010. The active semiconductor layers 010 atboth sides of a channel region of each transistor are conductized by aprocess of ion doping or the like to form source and drain electrodes ofthe transistor.

For example, as shown in FIG. 15, the scan signal lines Ga, the resetcontrol signal lines Rst, and the light emission control signal lines EMare arranged in the column direction Y. The scan signal line Ga islocated between the reset control signal line Rst and the light emissioncontrol signal line EM.

For example, in the column direction Y, the second electrode CC2 of thestorage capacitor Cst (i.e., the gate electrode of the drivingtransistor T3) is located between the scan signal line Ga and the lightemission control signal line EM. The protruding structure P protrudingfrom the scan signal line Ga is located on a side of the scan signalline Ga away from the light emission control signal line EM.

For example, as shown in FIG. 14, in the column direction Y, the gateelectrode of the first reset transistor T1, the gate electrode of thesecond reset transistor T7, the gate electrode of the data writingtransistor T4, and the gate electrode of the threshold compensationtransistor T2 are located on a first side of the gate electrode of thedriving transistor T3, and the gate electrodes of the first lightemission control transistor T5 and the second light emission controltransistor T6 are located on a second side of the gate electrode of thedriving transistor T3. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 12, thefirst side and the second side of the gate electrode of the drivingtransistor T3 of the pixel driving circuit 10 are two sides of the gateelectrode of the driving transistor T3 which are opposite to each otherin the second direction Y. For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the firstside of the gate electrode of the driving transistor T3 of the pixeldriving circuit 10 may be the lower side of the gate electrode of thedriving transistor T3, and the second side of the gate electrode of thedriving transistor T3 of the pixel driving circuit 10 may be the upperside of the gate electrode of the driving transistor T3. For example,the side of the display substrate for bonding the IC is the lower sideof the display substrate, and the lower side of the gate electrode ofthe driving transistor T3 is the side of the gate electrode of thedriving transistor T3 closer to the IC. The upper side is an oppositeside of the lower side, for example, the upper side of the gateelectrode of the driving transistor T3 is a side of the gate electrodeof the driving transistor T3 away from the IC.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 14, in the row direction X, thegate electrode of the second light emission control transistor T6, thegate electrode of the second reset transistor T7, and the first gateelectrode of the threshold compensation transistor T2 are all located atthe third side of the gate electrode of the driving transistor T3; andthe gate electrode of the first light emission control transistor T5,the gate electrode of the data writing transistor T4, the gate electrodeof the first reset transistor T1 are all located at the fourth side ofthe gate electrode of the driving transistor T3. For example, in theexample shown in FIG. 14, the third side and the fourth side of the gateelectrode of the driving transistor T3 of the pixel driving circuit 10of the sub-pixel are two sides of the gate electrode of the drivingtransistor T3 which are opposite to each other in the row direction X.For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the third side of the gate electrodeof the driving transistor T3 of the pixel driving circuit 10 may be theleft side of the gate electrode of the driving transistor T3 of thepixel driving circuit 10, and the fourth side of the gate electrode ofthe driving transistor T3 of the pixel driving circuit 10 may be theright side of the gate electrode of the driving transistor T3 of thepixel driving circuit 10. The left and right sides are opposite sides.For example, for the data line Vd and the first power signal line VDDcoupled to the same pixel driving circuit 10, the data line Vd is on theright side of the first power signal line VDD, and the first powersignal line VDD is on the left side of the data line Vd.

It should be noted that the structure of pixel driving circuit 10 may bea mirror-image structure as shown in FIG. 14, that is, the structures ofthe layers of each pixel driving circuit 10 are symmetric with respectto the channel region of the driving transistor T3, and therefore, theleft and right sides of the structures of the layers of each pixeldriving circuit 10 may be reversed.

For example, a first insulating layer is formed on the first conductivelayer 020 to insulate the first conductive layer 020 from a secondconductive layer 030 to be formed subsequently. FIG. 16 is a schematicdiagram of a second conductive layer 030 of a display substrateaccording to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 16, thesecond conductive layer 030 of the pixel driving circuit 10 includes afirst transfer electrode Vd-14 and a second transfer electrode Vd-15 ofthe first data line Vd-1, a signal connection line Vc-1 coupled to thepixel driving circuits 10 of the 1^(st) and the M-th first sub-pixeldriving circuit groups A10, a first plate CC1 of the storage capacitorCst, the reset power signal line Init, and a first light shieldingpattern S20. The first plate CC1 of the storage capacitor Cst at leastpartially overlaps with the second plate CC2 of the storage capacitorCst to form the storage capacitor Cst.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 14, the active semiconductor layer010 between two channel regions of the dual-gate threshold compensationtransistor T2 is in a floating state when the threshold compensationtransistor T2 is turned off, and a voltage of the active semiconductorlayer 010 is apt to jump by the influence of a voltage on a peripheralconductive line, so that the leakage current of the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 is affected, and thus, the brightness of theemitted light is affected. In order to keep the voltage of the activesemiconductor layer 010 between the two channel regions of the thresholdcompensation transistor T2 stable, the second light shielding patternS20 and the active semiconductor layer 010 between the two channelregions of the threshold compensation transistor T2 are disposed to forma capacitor, and the second light shielding pattern S20 may be coupledto the first power signal line VDD to obtain a constant voltage, so thatthe voltage of the active semiconductor layer 010 in a floating statemay be kept stable. The second light shielding pattern S20 overlaps withthe active semiconductor layer 010 between the two channel regions ofthe dual-gate threshold compensation transistor T2, which may alsoprevent the active semiconductor layer 010 between the two gateelectrodes from being irradiated so as to avoid a change of itscharacteristics, for example, prevent the voltage of the activesemiconductor layer 010 from being changed so as to prevent crosstalk.In one example, the first power signal line VDD to which each of thesecond light shielding patterns S20 is coupled is one of the pluralityof first power signal lines VDD that is closest thereto in the rowdirection X. For example, the second light shielding pattern S20 forshielding the channel region of the threshold compensation transistor T2in the second pixel driving circuit 10 is coupled to the first powersignal line VDD on the left side thereof, which is also used to supplythe first voltage to the first pixel driving circuit 10.

For example, a second insulating layer is formed on the secondconductive layer 030 described above to insulate the second conductivelayer 030 described above from a first source/drain metal layer to beformed subsequently. FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram of a thirdconductive layer 040 of a display substrate according to an embodimentof the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 17, the first source-drain metallayer of the pixel driving circuit 10 includes a first sub data linesegment Vd-11, a second sub data line segment Vd-12, a third sub dataline segment Vd-13 and a first transfer portion S 11 of a first dataline Vd-1, a fourth sub data line segment Vd-16 and a fifth sub dataline segment Vd-17 of a second data line Vd-2, a first power signal lineVDD, and a portion of the data line Vd that is only located in the firstdisplay region Q1.

For example, the third conductive layer further includes a firstconnection portion 11 and a second connection portion 12. FIG. 17 alsoillustrates an exemplary location of a plurality of via holes throughwhich the third conductive layer 040 is coupled to the plurality of filmlayers that are located between the source-drain metal layer and thesubstrate 101. For example, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 17, the data line Vdis electrically coupled to the drain electrode of the data writingtransistor T4 through a via hole 210 penetrating through the gateinsulating layer, the first insulating layer, and the second insulatinglayer. The power signal line VDD is electrically coupled to the sourceelectrode of the first light emission control transistor T5 through avia hole 208 penetrating through the gate insulating layer, the firstinsulating layer, and the second insulating layer. The power signallines VDD and the data lines Vd are alternately arranged in the rowdirection X. The power signal line VDD is electrically coupled to thefirst plate CC1 of the storage capacitor through via holes 206 and 207penetrating through the second insulating layer. The first power signalline VDD extends in the column direction Y. The power signal line VDD iselectrically coupled to the second light shielding pattern S20 through avia hole 205 penetrating through the second insulating layer 105 tosupply a constant voltage to the second light shielding pattern S20. Oneend of the first connection portion 11 is electrically coupled to thereset power signal line Init through a via hole 208 penetrating throughthe first and second insulating layers, and the other end of the firstconnection portion 11 is electrically coupled to the drain electrode ofthe first transistor T1 and the source electrode of the seventhtransistor T7 through a via hole 202 penetrating through the interlayerinsulating layer, the first insulating layer, and the second insulatinglayer. One end of the second connection portion 12 is electricallycoupled to the source electrode of the first transistor T1 through a viahole 203 penetrating through the gate insulating layer, the firstinsulating layer, and the second insulating layer, and the other end ofthe second connection portion 12 is electrically coupled to the secondplate CC2 of the storage capacitor Cst through a via hole 204penetrating through the first insulating layer and the second insulatinglayer.

For example, a third insulating layer is formed on the third conductivelayer described above for insulating the third conductive layer 040 fromthe fourth conductive layer 050 which is formed subsequently. FIG. 18 isa schematic diagram of the fourth conductive layer 050 of the displaysubstrate according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG.18, the fourth conductive layer 050 includes a first light shieldingportion S10 and a second transfer portion S12. The orthographicprojection of the first light shielding portion S10 on the substrate atleast partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the activelayer of the driving transistor T3 on the substrate; and the secondtransfer portion S12 is electrically coupled to the first transferportion S11 through a via hole 209 penetrating through the thirdinsulating layer.

For example, a planarization layer is formed on the fourth conductivelayer 050 to protect the fourth conductive layer 050 described above. Afirst electrode D1 of the light emitting device D is formed on theplanarization layer 106, and the first electrode D1 of the lightemitting device D is coupled to the second transfer portion S12. FIG. 19is a schematic diagram of the first electrode (transparent conductivelayer 070) of the light emitting device of the display substrateaccording to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 19, theplanarization layer includes a via hole 211, the first electrode D1 ofeach light emitting device D may be disposed on a side of theplanarization layer away from the substrate, and the first electrode D1of the light emitting device D is electrically coupled to the drainelectrode of the second light emission control transistor T6 through thevia hole. Of course, it should be understood that a signal connectionline is further provided in the transparent conductive layer 070 forelectrically coupling the first electrode D1 of the light emittingdevice D in the mounting region and the drain electrode of the secondlight emission control transistor T6.
